ABSTRACT:
The present invention, in one embodiment, is a method for identifying a test to perform for fault isolation. The method comprises the steps of identifying a loop/string of components having at least one component therein which is suspected of faulty operation, identifying a test, from a listing of tests, which satisfies pre-determined conditions, and selecting the identified test for performance.
